Bug#225001: partconf: Inconsistency in templates
Package: partconf
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The template asking for an action on a partition with an existing file
system is inconsistent with the similar template requesting an action on a
partition without any file system
The attached patch proposes a modification which would make both consistent.
It may even be applied during string freeze as it indeed does NOT add a
string (it removes one). The new string is already present in templates.
I wait a bit before applying it, just in case someone objects.
